Børre Sæthre – My Private Sky (Installation)
Norwegian artist Børre Sæthre has a way with the uncanny and is heavily influenced by the sets of Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey.
I thought of the piece above while listening to The Blues, which is a collaboration between Primary 1 and Nina Persson of the Cardigans.

This goes out to my friends in NYC. I feel your pain, that’s why I left Chicago after graduate school. Winter is just not much fun when it keeps on coming at you.

Another rainy day in San Francisco and this song fits the mood. The original is a little mellow, for my taste, but Prison Penguin remixes it to perfection.

Welcome Back Major Tom

Some of you might know the original Peter Schilling 1984 version of Major Tom (Coming Home) which was a retelling of David Bowie’s 1969 Space Oddity. Well now it’s 2010 and Shiny Toy Guns have given us a good version. You might recognize the song from a crappy car commercial but I won’t hold it against them, gotta make money somehow. What I wanna know is, what year they were at Burning Man when this photo was taken?
